Golden Globes: Watch Eddie Redmayne confirm he’s going to be a dad live on air

After weeks of speculation, Eddie Redmayne has confirmed that he and wife Hannah Bagshaw are expecting their first child.

The Oscar winner revealed that he would indeed become a father for the first time later in 2016 while at the annual Golden Globe awards.

Speaking to E! News on the red carpet, host Ryan Seacrest asked the pair about the baby ‘on the way’ and they confirmed, nodding their heads as Eddie said: ‘It is true!’

The pair were then presented with babygrows with the E! logo on them and the slogan: ‘You should see my crib’.

A source close to the couple told The Sun late last year that they were ‘delighted and extremely excited’ to be pregnant.

‘They don’t want to find out the sex of the baby but are happy to tell close friends and family they’re expecting,’ the insider added.

The two married in a romantic winter wonderland ceremony in 2014, entertaining ‘a small number of close family and friends’ with an intimate, candlelit ceremony.

There was no honeymoon though as Eddie headed off to film The Danish Girl, the true story of the first woman to undergo transgender surgery, which he is now nominated for a Best Actor award at this year’s BAFTAs.

Sadly he lost out at the Golden Globes to Leonardo DiCaprio’s stunning performance in The Revenant.
